F
It’s not simple to say
C
that Most days I don’t recognize me
Dm
With these shoes and this apron
That place and it’s patrons
Bb
Have taken more than I’ve gave them
F
It’s not easy to know
C
I’m not anything like I used be
Dm
Although it’s true
I was never attention sweet center
Bb
But I still remember that girl
Chorus:
F
She’s imperfect but she tries
C
She is good but she lies
Dm
She is hard on herself
Bb
She is broken and won’t ask for help
F
She is messy but she’s kind
C
She is lonely, most of the time
Dm
She is all of this, mixed up
Bb
And baked in a beautiful pie
F
She is gone, but she used to be mine
Verse II:
F
And it’s not what I asked for
C
Sometimes life just slips in through a backdoor
Dm Bb
Carves out the person and makes you believe it’s all true
And now I’ve got you
F
And you’re not what I asked for
A7
If I’m honest, I know I would give it all back
Dm
For a chance to start over
Bb
And rewrite an ending or two
For the girl that I knew
Chorus:
F
Would be reckless, just enough
C
Who get hurt
Dm
But who learns how to toughen up, when she’s bruised
Bb
And gets used by a man who can’t love
F
And then she’ll get stuck and be scared
Of the life that’s inside her
A7
Growing stronger each day
Til it finally reminds her
Dm
To fight just a little
Bb
To bring back the fire in her eyes
F A7
That’s been gone, but it used to be mine
Dm Bb
Used to be mine
F
She is messy, but she’s kind
C
She is lonely, most of the time
Dm Bb
She is all of this, mixed up, and baked in a beautiful pie
F
She is gone, but she used to be mine
